Habitat for Humanity of Lincoln gets $15,000 grant from Wells Fargo

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — Habitat for Humanity of Lincoln received a $15,000 grant from the Wells Fargo Foundation to help lower- and middle-income families build and improve their homes.

In Lancaster County, nearly half of households are “cost burdened,” meaning they are spending at least 30% of their monthly income on rent.

This grant went toward building a new home for a family here in Lincoln.

Wells Fargo employees joined Habitat volunteers on Sept. 13 to raise the walls of the home.

Wells Fargo is donating nearly $8 million to Habitat for Humanity International.
